情绪调节在心理健康和疾病中起着核心作用，但即使是最基本的情绪调节形式也知之甚少。为了检验抑制消极情绪和积极情绪的强烈效果，我们让180名女性参与者在两种条件中的一种情况下观看悲伤、中性和有趣的电影。抑制参与者(N=90)在观看电影时抑制他们的表达行为；没有抑制参与者(N=90)只是观看电影。压抑减少了所有3部电影中的表达行为，减少了悲伤和搞笑电影中的娱乐自我报告。生理上，抑制在中性电影中没有效果，但在消极和积极的情感电影中都有明显的效果，包括增加心血管系统的交感神经激活。在这些发现的基础上，我们提出了情绪抑制可能影响心理功能的几种方式。
Emotion regulation plays a central role in mental health and illness, but little is known about even the most basic forms of emotion regulation. To examine the acute effects of inhibiting negative and positive emotion, we asked 180 female participants to watch sad, neutral, and amusing films under 1 of 2 conditions. Suppression participants (N = 90) inhibited their expressive behavior while watching the films; no suppression participants (N = 90) simply watched the films. Suppression diminished expressive behavior in all 3 films and decreased amusement self-reports in sad and amusing films. Physiologically, suppression had no effect in the neutral film, but clear effects in both negative and positive emotional films, including increased sympathetic activation of the cardiovascular system. On the basis of these findings, we suggest several ways emotional inhibition may influence psychological functioning.
